In what looked like a break in protocol, the superstar shared a hug with Meghan Markle as they greeted each other like old friends. Beyoncé leaned in to give Meghan a kiss and a hug

Hugging members of the royal family has long been frowned upon and has previously caused a number of upsets.

However, Meghan wasn’t phased and continued laughing and chatting with the singer.

But it was Jay Z’s awkward moment when he hugged Megan that caught the eye of many. It seemed the multi-platinum star didn’t know what to do with his hands as he hugged the royal.
